Neurotological Findings in a Patient with Glufosinate Ammonium Intoxication

A Case of Anterograde Amnesia with Bilateral Hippocampus Involvement After Acute Glufosinate Ammonium Intoxication

Glufosinate ammonium is a commercial herbicide made from a phosphinic acid derivative of glutamate, which leads to a lethal accumulation of ammonia in plants by inhibiting the activity of glutamine synthetase (1). As the use of glufosinate-ammoniumcontaining herbicides has increased, so too has the incidence of acute intoxication through accidental or purposeful (attempted suicide) ingestion of...
